Fluid structure interaction - S. Mendez, IMAG
This project gathered three sub-projects related to fluid-structure interactions (FSI). Their common feature was the FSI solver from YALES2, which is based on a partitioned approach. The FSI solver couples an Arbitrary Lagrangian-Eulerian solver for predicting the fluid motion in a moving domain (FSI_ALE) and a solver for structural dynamics (FSI_SMS), which are both YALES2 solvers. The FSI solver is quite recent and initiated by Thomas Fabbri (LEGI, Grenoble) and the object was to spread its use among several teams, with the objective to improve its performances, demonstrate its versatility and add multiphysics effects.
- Sub-project 1 (Thomas Fabbri and Guillaume Balarac, LEGI): The aim of this sub-project was to decrease the time spent in computing the fluid grid deformation, which is currently the most costly part inside an iteration. The strategy is to solve a deformation field on a coarse mesh and apply it to a fine mesh after interpolation. Many pieces exist to perform such a task, but they are currrently not appropriate for this application. The work performed during the workshop consisted in identifying the different subroutines of interest and start coding the method. Many parts of the method are functional and the next step is to properly compbine them where needed.
- Sub-project 2 (Barthélémy Thibaud and Simon Mendez, IMAG): The aim of this sub-project was to validate the FSI solver in the case of a valve bent by a pulsatile flow. A proper strategy has been defined during the week to run this simulation and the first results are extremely promising, with fair comparisons with the reference results from the literature. This workshop has also contributed in enhacing the experience of the solver at IMAG.
